Pittsburgh

So far, so good for Todd Graham. Now comes the tough part — winning games. Pittsburgh fired Dave Wannstedt after he won 27 over the past three seasons. Mike Haywood of Miami (Ohio) was hired, then fired 16 days later after he was arrested for alleged domestic abuse. Enter Graham, who spent the past four seasons at Tulsa. Panther fans have embraced their new coach and his up-tempo offense, but will this translate into more victories? Graham does catch a break this fall because Pitt has eight home games.
